PURPOSE:To eliminate a misoperation of recording and reproduction with use of an adaptor, by providing a locking means which inhibits the operation of a tape draw-out member of a tape draw-out mechanism as long as small-sized tape cassette is not loaded to an adaptor storing part. CONSTITUTION:A tape draw-out mechanism includes connectors 46 and 47 connected to an operation lever 45, an L-shaped lever 48 connected to the connector 46, a lever 49 connected to the lever 48, a lever 50 connected to the lever 49, a rotor 51 unified with the lever 50, a rotor 52 unified with a loading lever 41, a belt 53 which connects the rotor 51 to the rotor 52, and rotary lever 54 connected to the connector 47 and a loading lever 42. When a small-sized cassette is taken out of an adaptor, the lever 45 is reset to the position shown by a solid line from the position shown by a 2-dot chain line. A connector locking member 55 is reset by the force of a spring 57, and the other end part 58 of the member 55 interlocks the connector 47 for locking. |
